ABSTRACT:

In the present study sSeven samples were collected of which four were from vermicompost from Prof. T.S. Murthy Udyan, Obaidullahganj and 3 from organic manure pit of Ambari, Himmatpur & Gwalipur. Mucor racemosus strains were screened for the production of lipase, gelatinase, xylanase, amylase and caseinase enzymes which showed its biodegradable role in composting process. RAPD techniques was used for genetic diversity of Mucor isolated from vermicompost resulted 64.29% as polymorphism the Mucor racemosus indicating higher percentage of homogeneity among them.

KEYWORDS:

Mucor; polymorphism; genetic diversity; RAPD;  PCR
